Touch Me was the first pop album by British model-turned-singer Samantha Fox, released in July 1986. The album was certified gold and featured four UK chart hits, two of which also charted in the US.

In Canada, with heavy promotion on local radio station CJCB in Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, Fox's first single and album gradually broke into the local and mainstream Canadian music market and eventually North America.

On July 25, 2012, Cherry Red Records (UK) released a special two-disc deluxe reissue of Samantha’s first album, Touch Me. Compiled with personal input from Fox, the set includes an extensive booklet, reversible cover art, newly added photos, a fully illustrated discography and recording data, full lyrics and new sleeve notes written especially for the release.
